Hey it’s OK…

When it comes to magazines, I tend to be a backwards reader…especially when the magazine in question is Glamour. I always first flick to the Hey It’s OK! section on the last page of the magazine. Each tidbit either makes me smile or nod in agreement. More than being 100% spot on, it’s a light-hearted reminder to take it easy on yourself every so often, whether or not you want to admit it.

So in honor of validating some of the things I may or may not do, here’s my list:

Hey, it’s OK to…

Refer to celebrities on a first-name basis

Say hello to someone you think you recognize….and then realize you have never met before in your life

Take photos with the hope of clicking at least one with profile potential

Still not understand what the fuss is about Instagram…and refuse to get sucked into another time-wasting trend (famous last words)

Justify unnecessary purchases on the fact that you just got paid

Wear the same outfits repeatedly despite the number of clothes in your cupboard with tags still on

Set your alarm knowing that you are going to snooze for least 30 minutes after the first ring

Refer to Mumbai as Bombay….even after its name change in 1995

Wake up remembering your dream…and wish it wasn’t a dream

Accumulate five multiple workouts worth of sweat in your hair before you wash it

Finish an entire container of Tic Tacs within one hour

Read countless articles on mindful eating…yet still eat a majority of your meals in front of the television/computer

Not recall the last time you washed your favorite pair of jeans

Be in bed before midnight on a Saturday night

Load new music onto your iPod yet still listen to songs from last century

YES to all of the above, especially the profile pic one. I do that all the time, and it annoys those around me to no end (although I bet they’re secretly hoping for the same thing)! Have a great day, K!

I only love instagram because it lets me be lazy and not use a real camera–it turns iphone photos into something halfway decent. Great post–and yup, I’m a-okay with all of those things as well. Especially the buildup of hair sweat. Except ew, sounds grosser when I put it that way, haha.

omg, i don’t get the point of instagram either.. seriously? with facebook and twitter, if i need to upload, i can do it on fb or twit, why go to instagram? makes no sense.

I have so much stuff hanging in my closet that i barely wear, i need to clean out my closet.. i have issues throwing stuff away cuz as you know, western brands NEVER go bad.. they still look great years later. not sure if that’s always good or bad.
